There is a 600w in that build

450w, no. 600w, yes.

I am aware. I was hoping I could cut cost at the PSU and go to the 450w version. :(

Use stock cooler instead of AIO
Do you need 32 gigs of ram?

130 dollars!? Dayum that is way overpriced. I can sleeve your PSU for forum gold.

Also you board is a mini itx.

Can you fit that cooler inside your mitx case? You are shoving a lot of shit into a very small case. Most of it is overkill like the LEDs and PSU sleeving which you'll never see inside that case. Much wasted money.

It's okay. I went through a money wasting phase a few years back. Fuck that was awful. Some much useless PC shit I didn't need.

I already have the entire build. I'm downsizing from ATX to mATX -- so I need a new PSU and mobo. I got the mobo already. I just need a PSU.

It has to be a SFX PSU. Stop giving suggestions and just answer the question. hahaha

The mobo is mATX and yes the cooler will fit inside the case.

I wouldnt run a 450w in that build Especially since PSU/electronics in general get less efficient at higher working temps, And you'll be stressing a 450w in a tiny case.
